The Black Market Foundation contributes to the local community through a number of initiatives, programs, and farmer’s markets. Our markets are located in food deserts, to improve access to farm-fresh produce and freshly prepared food options. We also support sustainable agricultural practices, support businesses in the areas surrounding the markets, and provide educational resources and events. We aim to create a strong sense of community and encourage residents to shop small and support locals.
